Thanksgiving is almost here making it the perfect time to read Turkey Trouble by Wendi Silvano with the children left in your care.
Turkey Trouble is a funny look at a turkey who is trying not to be the Thanksgiving table’s centerpiece. He attempts a number of disguises to blend in with some of the other farm mainstays and keep Farmer Jake off his scent. Kids giggle over the various ways Turkey tries to pass as a pig, or a horse, or a rooster.
Turkey Trouble is a silly take on a quick-thinking turkey’s quest for self-preservation with no farm-to-table realities depicted.
After reading Turkey Trouble ask the kids:
1. What sorts of fun things does your family do to celebrate the holiday?
2. Do you know the story of Thanksgiving? For what reason do we celebrate this holiday every year?
3. In Turkey Trouble, the farmer and his family decide to have pizza instead of turkey this year. What foods do you enjoy for Thanksgiving? What are your favorites?
